[Official UK] Xbox 360 Special Offers & Deals


Recommended Posts

I paid ?37 for that a month ago, I knew I should have waited:angry::

Shouldn't of bought it at all://

This years version is horrible.

I've gone to FIFA08.

Always been a PES man as well.

Anyone know what the current best price is for Guitar Hero 3 (seems to be gone from PowerPlayDirect's site)?

I managed to get it for ?60 new from Grainger Games, which is a small retailer up here in Newcastle. I was going to wait until after Christmas, but couldn't resist at that price.

I saw it for ?60 on ShopTo as well, but I think they're out of stock.

Let me know if you see skate on the cheap elsewhere Munky. I was hoping to buy it for Christmas for my brother.

Bought my brother a 360 from HMV earlier today; they are currently doing an offer for the premium + Halo 3 + NFS Pro Street for ?249. Not happy with the deal I got him to swap NFS for COD 4 and throw in an extra wireless controller; I bartered on the basis that if he doesn't sell it me, any of the other surrounding stores will. Quite pleased with myself!

Wonderful spot of haggling there young man! Bravo!

First your Mass Effect scam, now this.

You are learning fast young padawan:yes:::laugh::

I forget, can we get done for tax doing this?

You will get done/charged by customs if they open the package or inspect it and the value is over ?17.99, they usually add the VAT and then the Royal Mail adds on an extra ?10 of their own charges. Anyone who has ordered from playusa.com or playasia etc will know of this.

Its only happened to me once with playasia, but it can/does happen. It depends on whether customs decide to check anything or not. PlayUSA you get stung every time for items over ?17.99 as do a lot of friends (US gets releases, DVDs, faster than the UK, sometimes before we even get them in the cinema, though that is getting rarer now). I would just err on the side of caution. The main culprit however is Royal Mail who add the extra ?10 admin charge, and you cannot get your package until you pay it to them either in stamps/postal orders or cash, they will not accept payment by credit/debit car:(:(

And here's a very interesting deal which is gonna sparkle the interest with about nobody :laugh:

Gamestop in Elsinore, Denmark is doing a trade-in,

2 Used Xbox 360 / PS3 Games, no matter titler & price = 1 new game ( All platforms )

3 used GC / PS2 / Xbox titles, no matter title & price = 1 new game ( All platforms )

:rofl:

Well, atleast i got that for myself and i gathered enough PS2 titles for 7 new games.

Nice one Michael, but unfortunetly the topic is for UK buyers :p So unless anyone wants to take a day trip then..:p

ynnoj, Skate is back in stock at Shopto for ?30. I bought a copy myself and it should be here tomorrow:DD

:wub:: free 1st class recorded

The learning curve on that game was like scaling a cliff upside down for me://

Getting used to it now though.

^ I guess for some it just "clicks" and others get frustrated. The only controls I had a hard time with was trick > manual > trick, because the tutorial didn't explain it well enough imo, and how sensitive you need to be with the stick.

I loved it though and was at home with the controls in minutes. Can't wait for it to arrive :D

Skate for ?25 is in stock again at Amazon.>Link here>

Fifa 08 is on sale at Game for ?30 until 4th December.bLink hereb>

Remember you can use the ?5 off code as long as the basket is ?30 or >. As Fifa is ?29.99 it won't work. Add something cheap like this to your basket, and you'll still make a great sa:)ng :)

Game ?5 AWDC07XMXM

    • TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 by Razvan Serea TeraCopy is a compact program designed to copy and move files at the maximum possible speed, also providing you with a lot of features. Copy files faster. TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives. Pause and resume transfers. Pause copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click. Error recovery. In case of copy error, TeraCopy will try several times and in the worse case just skips the file, not terminating the entire transfer. Interactive file list. TeraCopy shows failed file transfers and lets you fix the problem and recopy only problem files. Shell integration. TeraCopy can completely replace Explorer copy and move functions, allowing you work with files as usual. TeraCopy is free for non-commercial use only. For commercial use you need to buy a license. The paid version of the program includes the following features: Copy/move to your favorite folders. Save reports as HTML and CSV files. Select files with the same extension/folder. Remove the selected files from the copy queue. Features added since version 3.17: Enhanced speed graph. New multi-threaded copy engine. Support for copying to multiple targets. Queue system for managing multiple copy operations. Support for receiving files via the LocalSend protocol. TeraCopy entry in the modern Windows Explorer context menu. Integrated toolbar in the title bar. Why receive LocalSend transfers with TeraCopy? Handle file conflicts: Skip, overwrite, or rename files when a file with the same name already exists. LocalSend always creates another copy, which can waste time and disk space, especially when resuming an interrupted transfer. Filter unwanted files: Apply ignore lists or remove files manually before accepting a transfer, so unnecessary files are not downloaded. Better performance on fast networks: In tests over a 10 Gbps connection, TeraCopy received files several times faster than the standard LocalSend app on Windows. TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 changelog: Fixed a bug where Overwrite behaved as Overwrite All during same-drive move operations. AdvancedInstaller fixed the installer’s security vulnerability: EXE Bootstrapper resolved the %appdata% location incorrectly for the System account.

    • First exciting thing to come to Windows in a long time ! This is the kind of things they should focus on, instead of cramming as much AI as they can in everything.
    • New AMD graphics driver fixes install issues and FSR 4.1 crashes on RX 7000 GPUs by Taras Buria AMD is rolling out yet another graphics driver. Version 26.6.4 is now available for download, bringing two important fixes. One is for those still using Windows 10 and having trouble installing driver 26.6.2. In fact, this patch is coming from the recently released hotfix, so it is not new if you are already running version 26.6.3. The second fix is for RX 7000 owners. AMD recently brought FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen graphics cards, but there was a bug with certain games crashing when using FSR 4.1. I experienced this issue with Forza Horizon 6, so today's driver should take care of that. Here is the official changelog: Intermittent install issue seen when installing AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 on Windows® 10 systems for Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Intermittent application crash may be observed in some games with AMD FSR Upscaling 4.1 enabled on Radeon™ RX 7000 series graphics products. Known issues include the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield™ 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield™ 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield™ 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. You can download the AMD Radeon driver 26.6.4 from the official website here. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • Amazon may use OpenAI and Nova models after Anthropic reportedly raises costs by Karthik Mudaliar Amazon is reportedly considering to use OpenAI models and even its own Nova family of AI models after Anthropic raised the cost of using Claude inside Amazon services. According to a report from The Information, Amazon is weighing its options to reduce costs under a new arrangement with Anthropic. But back in April, Amazon said it would invest $5 billion more in Anthropic, with the possibility of adding up to another $20 billion if certain commercial milestones are met. That investment actually came on top of another $8 billion Amazon had already put into the Claude maker. Anthropic, meanwhile, committed to spend more than $100 billion over 10 years on AWS technologies, including Amazon’s Trainium chips. Amazon isn't just a customer of Anthropic but also one of the most important backers and cloud partners. This is why it makes it interesting that Amazon is considering other alternatives to handle its internal workloads. Although Amazon has been building its own options for a while now. Its Nova family of AI models was announced in late 2024 for Amazon Bedrock, with models aimed at text, image, and video tasks. Amazon pitched the model around cost and latency at that time. With that said, OpenAI has also become a more realistic option recently for AWS customers as well as for Amazon itself. Earlier this year, OpenAI brought its latest models and Codex coding agent to Amazon Bedrock, after changes to its previously more restrictive Microsoft cloud arrangement. This allowed AWS to serve even those customers who wanted other alternatives from Claude, without having to move workloads out of Amazon's cloud. Evaluating alternatives could also be due to commercial pressure and not necessarily a sign of a damaged partnership between Amazon and Anthropic. Whether or not Amazon is actually considering switching entirely to OpenAI's models or its own Nova models remains unknown at this moment.
